How to Join ASME K-16

Individuals who are interested in joining the K-16 Committee will be admitted as Aspiring Member until they meet the requirements of Full Member (with voting rights). Aspiring members should sign up for the email list (emails sent from asme.gr.k16 at gmail.com) and LinkedIn group to ensure they receive all communications from K-16.  Make sure to put asme.gr.k16 at gmail.com on your email safelist to ensure receipt of the email communications.

To be admitted as full member, the following requirements need to be satisfied: 

• Attended at least two K-16 Committee meetings in a two year time frame (one meeting attendance can be online through virtual meeting) 

• Assisted and co-organized a minimum of three technical Tracks, Technical Sessions, Poster Sessions, Panels, or other K-16 sponsored activities at InterPack, ITherm, IMECE, and/or SHTC. 

Once the criteria shown above are met, the applicant should contact the K-16 Executive Committee (asme.gr.k16 at gmail.com) with documenting the meeting attendance and highlighting activities within K-16. The candidate's resume can simply have those activities highlighted or a standalone list of K-16 related activities can be included in the email body. 

The officers will then vote for and by simple majority decide whether to accept or reject the candidacy.
